Black Peppercorns
★★★★★
The first night I was desperate and at this point would have tried anything... I read where you swallow five black peppercorns, once at night, once in the morning. I got up that night, took the peppercorns (was in a lot of pain at the time and couldnt' sleep). I also soaked a cotton ball in the ACV and put it on the outside for a few minutes. I finally fell asleep, woke up the next morning to pain, but NOTHING like it was... I took more peppercorns, and around mid day felt the urge to go, (which meant horrible pain was around the corner again). This time I used about 1/4 tsp of cayenne pepper (finely ground) in a small enema bottle of warm water, and gave myself an enema. I expected there to be lots of pain with the pepper but there was none. I couldn't believe it, after I went, there was NO PAIN. I did this twice a day, for two days, and taking the peppercorns. At the same time, I am also taking 5 wheatgrass tablets a day. This was the THIRD Day and today I mowed the grass, cleaned my home, and actually felt like a human being. Mine were so severe the doctor said I needed surgery, and they were swollen so bad that they were blocking... This is a miracle. If you are hurting, please try this!!! I can't believe it works but I will never be without peppercorns or cayenne ever again.

Thanks for clarifying the swallowing aspect. I totally missed that part in the vids that I watched and the articles I read. I've only done it for the past two days but I was thinking that I was not going to be able to keep this as part of my regimine. I chewed 6 each morning and my mouth would be on fire for about 15 minutes afterwards. Now that I know I don't have to chew them I'll be adding another 5-6 later in the day. Thanks again.

Swallowed 4-5 whole black peppercorns morning and evening (sometimes on empty stomach - but if not, took them anyway). By day 5 H's were gone. Just have a little extra fold of skin now. 2 were hard and 2 were soft - worked on both kinds.
Also, used Vit E oil to soothe burning while they were still large. Better than the RX cream! Hope everyone tries this!

Peppercorns should not cause a problem with breastfeeding.
For your hemorrhoids, you can also try a salve, externally, that contains comfrey. If it has chickweed in it, that is a bonus!
Also, keeping yourself regular will help them to heal more quickly and not return. Add some blackstrap molasses to your diet (1 T. once or twice a day) and that may help, and will give you extra nutrients for nursing. Also make sure you drink a lot of water or herbal tea.
Have a great day and enjoy your baby! :)

I'm currently taking 5 black peppercorns every morning and night (I try to take them on an empty stomach but don't worry too much) and 500mg of rutin three times a day (ideally with food but again I don't worry about that much). I also am taking a normal multivitamin and mineral, zinc and vitamin C (1000mg slow release a day).
So far the pain is reduced to pretty much nil, blood is pretty much nil, and they seem to have shrunk very significantly. I predict they'll be gone in 1-2 weeks and it only took about 1 week (if that) to get to this point. I was very concerned and scared and in a lot of discomfort so I am ecstatic that it's working so well :)
Oh, I also ensure plenty of fibre and water, of course. I think it's the rutin and/or peppercorns that are doing it but the vitamin C might be helping too. Best of luck - I would be surprised if someone who copied my approach did not get success because for me it's been night and day! If I am somehow mistaken and it worsens again or something I'll post again to update, but so far things seem to be going very well!
November 13, 2020 Update
In the end... I think it was the rutin doing it but after a while it stopped being effective and I eventually started using ACV which is working even better and has not stopped being effective in years. I mix it with water and guar gum to make a gel. I made a post about that too :)

Now here is my story: I used to work with a friend of mine who suddenly got a very bad case of piles. I actually got a huge fright when he showed them to me and a couple of other co-workers becaused I have heard of them but have never seen them. They were the type of piles that hung out,if you know what i mean. I have a nephew who had the same piles and he had them removed by having a very painfull and uncomfartable operation. Anyways, one of my co-workers who also saw this guys piles was a real joker type of guy and used to pull a lot of pranks on the lot of us. He looked at this guy and told him that he knows about a remedy that will make those piles dissapeare within days. We all thought he was joking again. What he told this guy, I will never forget in my life. I gave this remedy to 2 other people and they could not believe that it worked.
This prankster told our collegue to swallow 2 to 3 black pepper corns on empty stomach in the morning and the same amount in the evening before he goes to sleep. That simple. That is the remedy for those big piles that otherwise can only be removed by having a operation.
Low and behold, the guy who had the piles could not believe it and so couldnt the rest of us. Four days after he started this black pepper corn treatment he showed us his arse and they were gone completely. I promise you that i have seen this with my own eyes. Before and after. I do not know how it works but this is no joke. It does work. Maybe ted can give us feedback on how black pepper can cure this.
I cincerely hope that this information can help somebody to get rid of those piles instead of going for a operation.i have seen it. It does work.this is no prank.
If somebody try this please give us feedback on this matter.

Ok, I have been suffering long enough to be desperate enough to try this peppercorn remmedy. I had a baby in July of 09, and have been riddled with hemorrhoids and fissures ever since. I have had two surgeries, have tried most of the natural remmedies on this site, have been using prep H, wipes with witch hazel, prescription hydocortizone suppositories, hot sitz baths, apple cider vinnegar both on the hemorrhoids themselves and taking internally, nothing is working. I even shoved a raw clove of garlic up there as my homeopathic remedy book suggested. NOTHING is helping. I am in so much agony every day that I am suffering from depression, not enjoying my life and my baby as I should be, and am feeling like giving up. I cry every day. I eat tons of fiberous foods, drink tons of water, take fiber pills daily, don't strain on the toilet, do not have hard stools, go once a day like clock work. I am starting to worry that I am dying, have cancer or something is really wrong with me. For about half the day after I have a BM, I am in such pain. Not only does it hurt around my anus, but my butt cheeks are sore and numb, the mussles around my vagina hurt, my groin, the backs of my legs are throbbing and numb, and feel almost cold. Do other ppl with bad hemorrhoids have this also??? Well anyways, I just swallowed three black whole peppercorns with a huge glass of water. I am praying that this is some sort of miracle cure and not a joke. I guess I will let you all know, but if there is anyone out there with some advice for me I would love to hear it. I really just can"t live like this any more.... Please Help!!!!

Tracy... so sorry you are in such agony. I also tried everything, although mine was not as severe as what you are experiencing, but what 'cured' my Hemorrhoids was to spray my privates (front and back) each time I used the bathroom, keeping the area clean. I carried a small spray bottle in my purse filled with 3% Hydrogen Peroxide. It's been 3 years since I began this protocol, now I just spray after shower and bed-time. I suspected that perfumed soaps and chemicals aggravated this condition. Hope this helps.

Hi Tracy, Sorry to hear you're suffering so much and not enjoying your life. I had a lot of trouble with this too when I had my babies. What really helped finally was acupuncture. Hemmoroids have to do with the chi energy. You can get treated and the hemmoroids will rise back up into the body. I really hope you can look into this. The acupuncture can also treat your depression. Chinese medicine can really help you, I am certain. Peace, Lisa

Hi Everyone! Thanks so much for your comments. I am writing an update on this seemingly silly peppercorn remmedy. Well, I am a bit bewildered as to how, but I can say that I think it is actually working! Lol. I still have the hemorrhoids, but they seem to be shrinking, and I am in at least 75% less pain. I've been swallowing 4 black peppercorns morning and night on an empty stomach. Spiritually I feel absolutely wonderful. I am generally a very happy person, and each day I would wake up happy and eager to start my day off with my new baby, and then after I had a bowell movement everything would just go down hill. The throbbing would start, the pain would be unbearable and my spirit would sink and so would begin a day of misery. It is amazing how pain can affect one's spiritual well being. Well, it has been about a week of trying this, and I can say that I have not cried once. As I said, they are still there, but remarkably smaller and less painful. My day doesn't seem to be affected at all right now. This remmedy is definately not a prank as there really hasn't been any adverse affect as in burning or irritation caused by the peppercorns. I am going to continue this regemine, and see what happens. Part of me is so skeptical about how this could possibly work that I keep thinking maybe it is something else that is helping, but I'm really not doing anything else for them or anything different that could explain it. Anyways, as long as things stay on a positive path of improvement I am happy. But if this really works, I really want to help others who are suffering so I will continue to report on my progress. And when I say that I have had an incredibly bad case of hemorrhoids, I mean BAD!!! So if this can work for me, I know it can deffinately help others. Thanks for your support everyone. I'll keep y'all posted! Happy to be happy again, and really hoping it stays this way! :-)

Hi Tracy. Thank ou for posting your story. It is like you were telling my story. I have been suffering now for about 5 months. I too, have thought and wondered if somehing else is going on with me...cancer, am I dying, etc? These hemorrhoids are destroying my life in every sense. I am going to start the peppercorns tonight. I am afraid to even hope. All of the research on the internet has so many people with this or that, which has worked for them...but NONE of it for me. It's been a rough ride, and I DESPERATELY want off. I would love to know if you are cured now. I am hopeful with this.

This is regarding Tracy's symptoms. I too have had much trouble & comes & goes. Some of my worst symptoms sound similar.
But this I learned after years and doctors. I was finally told I had Crohns & Colitis. I began to research & found this is an inflammatory bowel condition. It began to click. At that time I was having a horrible time. It seems I can not have a movement without extreme difficulty despite what I do or take. Even with enemas it is a strain many times. No, I do not take medications for it. I could never figure out why it was such a struggle, despite herbs, fiber, diet, etc.
So, I realized that I was indeed severely inflamed in the rectal region, at that time, actually practically swollen shut! Of course I had to strain! Of course my hems were flared! And they were being strangled and squeezed continually. I have previously had a procedure for them.
Researching what I could do naturally for them, I found an all fruit regimen would reduce symptoms. In 3 days I could tell the swelling was down. Life became much easier! I continued for 3 weeks, blending lots of smoothies. Of course my candida loved it too, but I got relief. Grains, and sugar are definite no no's for me. It is a straight and narrow path for my diet, any deviation, will usually bring symptoms back. But when you can see a pronounced result, you are much more inclined to stick with it.
If someone had identified the culprit sooner, I could have been spared much suffering. Diet is crucial when you have Crohns or colitis.
Hope someone else may find this useful!

Hi Tracey! I would like to know whether the black peppercorns healed your hemorrhoids completely... People thought that it was a joke when I posted it on this site... I gave this info on the peppercorns to a couple of people ever since I posted it here and all of them were cured within a couple of days....

Hi Dries... Would black peppercorns help excessive skin folds on the anus... It's not skin tags or haemorroids.... Just a fold or flap of extra skin that's so embarrassing.... I have one large extra fold of skin and now a little one started.... Like a tiny dog ear of extra skin.. I am so embarrased to show my bottom because of this... And my dr won't consider surgery.. I am desperate... It's debilitating and affecting my relationship ....
